God Speaks . . . to You
God’s had direct, personal, reciprocally communicative relationships with a lot of men . . . Abraham, Moses, Gideon, David, Paul. What about you and me, though?
Many of us men—to the extent we think about it at all—assume those guys were special, different from us. And so, we decide God probably wants with us a different type of relationship—more indirect, impersonal, and non-reciprocal—go to church, read the Bible a bit, get on with our lives. That would mean, though, that God’s purpose in bringing us stories of these men was to simply demonstrate something unattainable—a divine taunt, of sorts. It would reveal a desire to impress upon us how special His biblical supermen were, so we'd gaze upon them and wonder why He created us so . . . un-super.
Should we believe that? Or, could He have, through these stories, been showing us His heart, His father’s heart? Could it be that He wanted direct, personal, reciprocal relationships with Abraham, Moses, and an incalculable number of men, and that He wants that kind of relationship with you and me too, right now?
“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.” (Matthew 7:7–8)
Sure sounds direct . . . personal . . . reciprocal.
Okay, so what do we do?
Begin to open your mind, brother. God wants to speak to you—directly to you. In Scripture, he spoke with His own audible voice; through dreams and visions; through intermediaries, such as angels and other human beings; and directly into thoughts, using His “still, small voice.” While the others are admittedly rare, using people as His intermediaries and using His still, small voice are actually quite common.
